Replying to @POTUS
@POTUS: Please make a deal with President Xi and unite the nearly 300 U.S. waiting families matched with an adoptive child in China. These families have waited years to welcome these medically vulnerable children into a safe, loving home. Help finalize their adoptions!

Winter weather is arriving in Florida. As it makes its way through the state, remember to:
✅ Slow down for icy road conditions
✅ Stay alert, as ice forming is not always visible
✅ Stay put if possible and avoid any non-essential travel
Rep. John Rutherford retweeted
We continue to prepare for a widespread winter storm, which is expected to bring snow, sleet, and ice across North Florida today and into tonight.
Winter storm conditions can change rapidly, and ice accumulation from freezing rain makes hazardous driving conditions likely. If you are in an affected area, please stay off the roads. Floridians are, by nature, not prepared for driving in ice and snow, and this can be extremely dangerous. Staying off the roads is the best way to stay safe, and will keep the roadways clear for emergency personnel to operate. Monitor updates from @MyFDOT, @FLSERT and local officials.
